| ||||
Be it enacted by the People of the State of Illinois,
| ||||
represented in the General Assembly:
| ||||
Section 5. The Community-Integrated Living Arrangements | ||||
Licensure and
Certification Act is amended by changing Section | ||||
13 as follows: | ||||
(210 ILCS 135/13) | ||||
Sec. 13. Fire inspections; authority. | ||||
(a) Per the requirements of Public Act 96-1141, on January | ||||
1, 2011 a report titled "Streamlined Auditing and Monitoring | ||||
for Community Based Services: First Steps Toward a More | ||||
Efficient System for Providers, State Government, and the | ||||
Community" was provided for members of the General Assembly. | ||||
The report, which was developed by a steering committee of | ||||
community providers, trade associations, and designated | ||||
representatives from the Departments of Children and Family | ||||
Services, Healthcare and Family Services, Human Services, and | ||||
Public Health, issued a series of recommendations, including | ||||
recommended changes to Administrative Rules and Illinois | ||||
statutes, on the categories of deemed status for accreditation, | ||||
fiscal audits, centralized repository of information, | ||||
Medicaid, technology, contracting, and streamlined monitoring | ||||
procedures. It is the intent of the 97th General Assembly to |
pursue implementation of those recommendations that have been | ||
determined to require Acts of the General Assembly. | ||
(b) For community-integrated living arrangements licensed | ||
under this Act, the Office of the State Fire Marshal shall | ||
provide the necessary fire inspection to comply with licensing | ||
requirements. The Office of the State Fire Marshal may enter | ||
into an agreement with another State agency to conduct this | ||
inspection if qualified personnel are employed by that agency | ||
code enforcement inspection of the facility by the local | ||
authority may occur if the local authority having jurisdiction | ||
enforces code requirements that are equal to those enforced by | ||
the State Fire Marshal . Nothing in this Section shall limit a | ||
local authority with jurisdiction from conducting local code | ||
inspection and enforcement or prohibit a local fire authority | ||
from conducting fire incident planning activities.
